Collection and Usage Attributes
Must be a valid date.
Queensland Hospital Admitted Patient Data Collection (QHAPDC):
A patient is on leave if they leave the hospital for a short period and intend to return to the hospital to continue the current course of treatment. Under current national guidelines, an admitted patient may be granted leave for up to a maximum of seven days.

A patient who goes on leave but does not return within the seven day limit is to have their episode of care ended on the date that they left the hospital to go on leave. The mode of separation (discharge status) for these episodes is to be recorded as code 09 (Non return from leave).

Residential Mental Health Care Data Collection (RMHCDC):
A consumer is on leave if they leave the specialised residential mental health care facility for short to medium periods and intend to return to the facility to continue the current course of treatment/rehabilitation. Leave is typically for periods up to seven days, however, leave used in transitional leave scenarios may be for an extended period of up to 42 days.

A consumer who goes on leave but does not return within the 42 day limit is to have their episode of care ended on the date that they left the facility. The mode of separation (discharge status) for these episodes is to be recorded as code 09 (Non return from leave).
Some information systems restrict date storage to CCYYMMDD format e.g. Oracle systems.
